What a painful death this must have been. God bless her family. I hope someone will be held responsible. A lesson to people to keep these dogs on leash or confined.WHO would want such a dog as a pet??
Prayers for the family.
Condolence to this family. I know people who say but he is so sweet so loving he is our baby. But they are big and strong and aggressive. As all dogs are they will all bite and attack big little small it's their nature. Fortunately the smaller ones can easily be fought off. Pits not do easy.
